Hello Sweet Friends!
It's April Fool's Day but I'm not one for playing pranks so I'll just 'get on with it!' LOL
We have a new challenge to share with you over on Double D today
and the awesome Diane is our hostess! The theme she has chosen is . . .
BANNERS
What fun! Check out this amazing mood board she has created for your inspiration:
When I think of banners, I immediately think of birthdays ...
So that is where my brain was when creating this card ...
To create today's card I've used the Sue Wilson - Shadow Box Collection - 'Celebrations' die set (#ced9314) and the Poppystamps 'Whittle Cupcake'
I've used various scraps of card stock to create my banner and baker's twine for the 'rope' that holds my pendents.
I've added extra sparkle by die cutting the balloons from DCWV sparkle card stock then once again used baker's twine for the strings.
Diane has this fun Cutter Bee 'Banners' die set as the prize
to one lucky random winner. WOW! How cool is that!! Remember ...
you gotta play to win!
